Default need ELECTRICAL help!

I'm looking for in my 95 vette a place to get a "LOCK" and "UNLOCK" signal.

also I am looking for where i can splice in my 30amp relays to be able to put up and down the drivers side and passengers side windows

I have the wiring diagrams but am unsure of physically where in the car i can find these wires (areas) the book also cannot tell me the most convenient spot

Thanks in advance, -Matt

I'd go into the door panel and find the wires going to the door lock switch and use those. As for the windows, do the same with the console and find the window switches and use them. You won't need to wire in a relay, just tap into the switches.

Thank for the help! i am trying to stay away form the actual door panel if possible so that i do not have to try and push more wires through the weather sealing. also I believe that switches have the full power going through them therefor what I am doing i would still have to use relays

again thanks for the help

If your window motors have worn out brushes and rusted brush springs you can install 100 relays with no success.
Good luck whatever you do!
There is no problem, I am making some modifications of my own. I will be keeping everything running as normal with the addition of my mods.

thank for the help!!
